Fluffy blueberry and vanilla pancakes

Fluffy blueberry and vanilla pancakes are a delightful breakfast treat that combines the sweet and tangy flavor of blueberries with a hint of vanilla. These pancakes are light, airy, and perfect for a weekend brunch or a special morning meal. Follow this simple recipe to make a stack of delicious pancakes that will impress your family and friends.

Ingredients:

1.50 cups milk (1% fat)
360g
1 egg
50g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
2 cups self-raising flour
300g
1 tsp baking soda
5g
1/3 cup sugar
63g
1 tbsp butter
16g
1 cup blueberries
150g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Wet Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
2. Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, sift together the self-raising flour, baking soda, and sugar.
3. Merge Wet and Dry Mixtures:
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy — don't overmix to ensure your pancakes stay fluffy.
4. Incorporate Blueberries:
- Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
5. Heat the Pan:
- Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with a small portion of the butter.
6. Cook the Pancakes:
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
7. Repeat:
- Repeat steps 5 and 6, adding more butter to the pan as needed, until all the batter is used.
8. Serve:
- Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve hot. Optionally, top with extra blueberries, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a dollop of whipped cream.

Tips:

- Ensure your milk and egg are at room temperature before mixing to create a smooth batter.

- Do not overmix the batter; it's okay if there are a few lumps. Overmixing can make the pancakes tough.

- Let the batter rest for about 5-10 minutes before cooking to help the pancakes rise better.

- Use a non-stick pan or lightly grease your skillet with butter or oil to prevent sticking.

- Cook the pancakes on medium heat to ensure they cook evenly without burning.

- Gently fold the blueberries into the batter to prevent them from sinking to the bottom.

- Wait until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes before flipping them to ensure they are cooked through.

- Serve the pancakes immediately for the best texture and flavor.

With their irresistible fluffiness and the sweet burst of blueberries in every bite, these vanilla-infused pancakes are sure to become a breakfast favorite. Serve them with a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of whipped cream, or simply enjoy them on their own. Whichever way you choose, these pancakes are a delicious way to start your day.
